Hanley Investment Group Sells Single-Tenant NNN Wells Fargo for $3,245,000
***
All Cash, 1031 Exchange Buyer

IRVINE, CALIF. – Hanley Investment Group Real Estate Advisors, one of the most dominant retail investment groups in the western United States and a market leader in the sale of retail properties, announced today that Edward B. Hanley and William B. Asher represented the seller in the sale of a single-tenant NNN Wells Fargo in Menifee, Calif. The purchase price was $3,245,000.

Located in Riverside County at 30186 Haun Road in Menifee, the single-tenant Wells Fargo is a pad building situated within the Countryside Marketplace, the dominant power center in the region anchored by Super Target, Lowe’s, Kohl’s, Best Buy, Staples and Michaels. Other notable tenants include Tilly’s, Old Navy, Petco, BevMo, In-N-Out, Red Robin, Chipotle and Starbucks. Built in 2008, Wells Fargo occupies a 5,250-square-foot, free-standing building situated on a 0.55-acre parcel of land.

“The demand for single-tenant NNN investments continues to be extremely strong,” said Edward B. Hanley, president of Hanley Investment Group Real Estate Advisors. “There is a lack of quality single-tenant NNN properties on the market right now in southern California. When they do come to market, they are transacting quickly with all cash buyers.”

“The Wells Fargo benefits from an outstanding location within a power center that features a high quality mix of credit tenants,” said William B. Asher, managing director at Hanley Investment Group. “Overall, single-tenant bank buildings with the credit of a Wells Fargo or similar to it are receiving the most activity in the marketplace and viewed by the investment community as one of the most stable and secure single-tenant investments.”

Asher notes the buyer paid cash and fulfilled a 1031 exchange with the purchase.

The buyer, Lew 1st – Crenshaw Properties, LLC of Glendale, Calif., was represented by James Kwon of Coldwell Banker Best Realty in Fullerton, Calif. The seller was Donahue Schriber Realty Group of Costa Mesa, Calif.

100% Occupied, 4 Tenant Investment Sells for $4,827,000

IRVINE, CALIF. – Hanley Investment Group Real Estate Advisors, one of the most dominant retail investment groups in the western United States and a market leader in the sale of retail properties, announced today Eric P. Wohl and Edward B. Hanley of Hanley Investment Group represented the buyer and seller in the sale of a four-tenant shopping center in Las Vegas, Nevada. The purchase price was $4,827,000, representing $177 per square foot.

The 27,300-square-foot shopping center, known as Family Place, is located at 1125-1175 East Charleston Boulevard in Las Vegas. Positioned at the signalized intersection of Charleston Boulevard and Maryland Parkway, the property is situated on a 1.97-acre parcel. Tenants include 99 Cents Only, Burger King (ground lease), LaunderLand and Moneytree. The property was built in 2003 and was 100 percent occupied at the time of sale.

“99 Cents Only was a logical buyer for the property due to the fact that their store performs very well at this location,” said Eric P. Wohl, a vice president at Hanley Investment Group. “The transaction was a success for both parties. 99 Cents Only acquired an investment they occupied in a location and area that fit the company’s goals and objectives long term, while the seller disposed of a non-core asset within their portfolio.”

“The market for single-tenant and multi-tenant retail properties priced under $5 million is very active right now,” adds Edward B. Hanley, president of Hanley Investment Group. “With a lack of product currently on the market, demand continues to increase from buyers seeking retail investment properties across the western United States.”

The buyer was 99 Cents Only, Inc. based in Commerce, Calif. The seller was Family Place Station, LLC of Salt Lake City, Utah.

Tustin Retail Center Sells for $312 PSF

IRVINE, CALIF. – Hanley Investment Group Real Estate Advisors, one of the most dominant retail investment groups in the western United States and a market leader in the sale of retail properties, announced today Edward B. Hanley and Eric P. Wohl of Hanley Investment Group represented the seller in the sale of a multi-tenant retail strip center in Orange County, Calif. The purchase price was $2,990,007, representing $312 per square foot.

The 9,597-square-foot retail center, known as Walnut Newport Center, is located at 13842 Newport Avenue in Tustin. The four-tenant strip center is anchored by Blockbuster Video and is situated on a 0.74 acre parcel of land. Built in 1986, Walnut Newport Center was 100 percent occupied at the time of sale.

“It was a rare sale of a multi-tenant strip center in Orange County,” said Edward B. Hanley, president at Hanley Investment Group. “Due to the property’s excellent location and surrounding demographics, we experienced a great deal of interest.”

“It was a challenging transaction due to the uncertainty of Blockbuster Video as a tenant in today’s market and the fact that they occupied approximately 65 percent of the property’s square footage,” said Eric P. Wohl, a vice president at Hanley Investment Group. “The strength of the location overcame initial objections and the future potential to re-tenant the space if Blockbuster Video were to vacate the premises.”

Hanley notes the sale was an all cash transaction.

The buyer, Lee Family Trust of Orange County, Calif. was represented by Chuck Hathoot of Prudential California Realty based in Laguna Niguel, Calif. The seller was Westwood Financial of Los Angeles, Calif.
